The central government on Monday will release the second edition of India Rankings 2017 of the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), a methodology adopted to rank all institutions of higher education in the country.
The rankings would be released by Union Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar, a release said.
The NIRF was launched in September 2015 and the maiden rankings were released on April 4, 2016.
The ranking methodology is based on developing a set of metrices for ranking of academic institutions, based on the parameters agreed upon by a core committee set up by the Ministry of Human Resource Development.
The parameters broadly cover "Teaching, Learning and Resources", "Research and Professional Practices", "Graduation Outcomes", "Outreach and Inclusivity", and "Perception".
